I don't care how much I love a bag, I don't think I could own a bag in a color called "Salad!" Lettuce.....maybe....
This just arrived today. I bought this in red and brown and both had super chewy thick pebbled leather. So thick that the strap wouldn't slide easily and they squeaked! So I got rid of them. This color (periwinkle?) stole my heart so despite of my past experience with the strap issue I bought it again! Third time's a charm! The strap doesn't squeak! I'm so happy!

I saw a red one on Etsy it’s beautiful but a little to much for what I would spend.They are usually easy to find in great condition because they are so small they don't get used much. Biltmore is a great size for me.
I think you are right, I just looked up the dimensions, Biltmore would be a better size.They are usually easy to find in great condition because they are so small they don't get used much. Biltmore is a great size for me.
So what's in everyone's wish list? What vintage coach bag are you looking for?

It's very possible I'd end up feeling the same way about the Devon--I'm definitely a fan of top handles! How do you like the Hudson?I'm missing 2 & 8. Never owned 8 I had a Manor in mahogany but sold it.
Had 9. Black with nickel and just sold it recently. I feel weird about Devon. For some reason it looks naked to me.. like it's missing a top handle. [emoji38]
Haha. I don't know. I haven't gotten around to bathing her yet so I haven't used it yet.It's very possible I'd end up feeling the same way about the Devon--I'm definitely a fan of top handles! How do you like the Hudson?
I have also discovered I like top handles. I need them lolIt's very possible I'd end up feeling the same way about the Devon--I'm definitely a fan of top handles! How do you like the Hudson?
Good question!So what's in everyone's wish list? What vintage coach bag are you looking for?
Co-sign this list!Here is my wish list:
1. A Pony Express in any color except white or black
2. A Willis in pool blue with nickel hardware
3. A Willis in British Tan
4. A Courier Pouch in putty
5. Non-vintage but still on my list is a large sized Rogue in some shade of teal or blue
6. A Legacy Zip in red
7. A Janice's Legacy in light blue (also pool blue?) with nickel hardware and one in red
8. A skinny flight bag in British Tan
9. A large plaza in British Tan
10. A Bleecker shopper in British Tan (Whiskey?)
And a co-sign to this list too , but even more so too, that I usually won’t pay more than $35-40-ish for a bag. I did pay $85 for a like new red Pocket bag (made a rather low offer, which was accepted immediately, much to my surprise) and non-vintage Ace, also like new.1. A real oldie, something from the 1960s, a kisslock, striped lining, the whole thing.
2. A couple of Madison top handles (preferably Copley) that are not black, brown or navy.
3. Something from the 90s in unusual bright colors.
4. A large bag - a hobo, Taft, a duffle sac, etc. - in burgundy or cognac (that would be one of the generations of British tan, very orangey)
But given that I am an extreme bottom feeder/cheapskate, I am unlikely to pay the price that those bags command. I do get lucky on EBay every now and then.
Go BT! lolI've been working on reading both this thread and the rehab thread from the beginning, and the more I read the longer my wishlist gets. I first started looking into vintage Coach bags because I decided I wanted a Willis to rehab, but I got a little sidetracked and still have yet to buy a Willis lol.
1. Court in British Tan, Red, and Black w/nickel hardware
2. Manor in British Tan and/or Red
3. Logan in British Tan
4. Madison Copley in any color
5. Saddlery Bag in British Tan or Grey
6. Hudson in any color
7. Devon in British Tan
8. Madison Pierpont in any color
9. Willis in Black or Grey w/nickel hardware
10. Soft Satchel in Red
